Just Watched OPPENHEIMER. Thoughts ITT
Poast new message in this thread
Date: November 19th, 2024 7:33 AM Author: ...,,..;...,,..,..,...,,,;.., my main thought: this film was way overproduced/overdirected. they had a very compelling story that could have been made into a 180 film just by letting the story speak for itself, and it didn't need to be told in a mishmash order with 3 hours of constant intense feeling and drama. all this overproduction takes away from how amazing the story is itself, and it's just unnecessary. there's no reason a biopic or whatever you'd call this needs to be filmed like some memento.
that being said, it was a very exciting and engaging movie. the acting and story and raw material was all excellent. it had us on the edge of our seats for the entire 3 hours, and didn't feel too long. it was just too unnecessarily intense the whole time and needed to calm the fuck down at times. boring is good sometimes.
call me gay, but the nudity was trashy and unnecessary for a movie like this. no reason we needed to see that girl's tits out constantly. it all just makes the movie come off as degenerate jew hollywood garbage.
overall, compared to all the shitlib propaganda garbage that hollywood has been making in recent years, this movie has got to be as good as they can possibly do. it's nice to see a movie about scientists with (((white))) men heroes. if hollywood is educating the masses about this story and important piece of history, that's a good thing.
i see why it won all this acclaim given how ttt movies have been lately. but objectively, a movie like this shouldn't be best picture in any era where hollywood was producing good movies on the regular. reviews say this movie is one of the best of the 21st century; that's a sad testament to where hollywood is at now.
the movie did have undertones of hollywood jewish shitlibbery. it was obviously antiweapons and gave sympathy to the classic hollywood commie/shitlib/anti-mccarthyism schtick. but that was the reality of the movie and it told a fair story given the time. |

but there's some good material in there. some rando will prolly come out with a fan-made AI cut of oppenheimer in the next five years that's an unmitigated 180 |
|
Date: November 19th, 2024 12:21 PM Author: ..,,.,,.,.,.,.,,.,,.,...,., I thought it sucked mostly for the reasons you said at the top of your post. The great directors can tell a narrative story from beginning to end and don’t need to rely on timeline jumps and reveals to try to make a film interesting. Apparently Nolan isn’t good enough to do that so he had to rely on cheap conventions and it’s too bad because the movie was compelling in the first hour or so when largely stuck to Oppenheimer’s beginnings.

Date: November 19th, 2024 12:55 PM Author: ...,,..;...,,..,..,...,,,;.., not sure why xo hates the last hour. i think oppenheimer's moral/conscience struggle and activism after the bomb is compelling, as are the political efforts by the warmongers to shut him down. the deep state conspiracy and jew-on-jew violence between oppenheimer and strauss are certainly compelling narratives that are interesting parts of the overall story, and nolan wasn't wrong to make a big deal about them. but no reason to tell the story out of order.
